Setting the network scope
You can configure the dashboard to display all objects in your area of responsibility (AOR) or a
subset of objects (fabrics, devices, or groups).
NOTE
Network scope does not affect the Events widget. The Events widget always includes all objects in
your AOR.
From the dashboard, select a network from the Network Scope list. Options include:
• All
• Any SAN fabric
• Any Ethernet fabric
• Any system-defined group
• Any user-defined group
• Any user-defined customized network
If you select a fabric scope, violation counts display for all products and ports in the fabric.
If you select a product scope, violation counts display for the selected products and the ports that
belong to the selected products.
If you select a port scope, violation counts display for the specified ports and the products to which
the ports belong. If any of the selected ports are initiator or target ports, violation counts display for
the attached switch port.
Select All to include all managed and monitored fabrics or groups in your AOR. The default is All. If
the fabric or group you select is deleted from discovery, the widget refreshes and returns to the
default (All).
Creating a customized network scope
You can create a network scope from any objects in your AOR. You can create network scopes
based on Fabrics, Products, Product Groups, or Ports.
